Toyota is a great choice, I haven't owned anything else for decades with no complaints. And great resale value.

I will never own anything electric as far as a vehicle, I hope.

Damn. That makes things very enticing. Big Grin

When we bought our Highlander XLE, I wanted the hybrid but it was a $3,000 upcharge over the gas only version. My understanding is the RAV4 hybrid is much less of an upcharge over the gas only version.

Jeff, can you provide some feedback on your guys purchase of your Rav4.
How do you like it?
Anything you don't like?
Is it too small?
Can you tow anything with it?
What did you pay for it?

Thanks

She loves it. The only complaint is that you have to watch your head getting in.

It seems bigger than the Subaru Forester it replaced. We live in the mountains, lots of dirt mountain roads but we are still averaging 29MPG, a big improvement over the Forester.

We really like the adaptive cruise, lane change tech.

We paid 32K out the door. She wanted fog lights so we have to bump up a model.

Not sure about towing as we do not have that need.

Unless Toyota has changed their system, keep in mind that it only stays in AWD up to about 25mph. Then it kicks back out into FWD. That was one reason we went with the Outback. Well, I did. Mrs. M-11 didn't like the interior (2018).
